Does Touro have anything to do with admissions now that they bought this school?

Touro bought NYMC?? Wow! I'll be applying here this year.

 

[JSU]

Touro bought NYMC?? Wow! I'll be applying here this year.

Why is that surprising and what do you think it means for future students?

 

[fingerscrossedd]

Yay NYMC! Goodluck everyone--let's all hope that we find a great school to call home for the next four years!

 

[iniquus]

It means NYMC has more financial stability with Touro's support. I only see things heading in a positive direction for NYMC.

 

[Alejandro]

I wonder how expensive it is to go to NYMC, esp with the living expenses....hm.

 

[Depumcrc]

I was wondering what you students think of the merger with Touro and how it will effect us in our education/rotations/residencies?

Do our optional letters of rec have to be from professors? The course name/college/course number fields are all mandatory

I bet you can get away with writing N/A

 

[PerfectCoat]

what do I do if I never went to grad school, what do I fill in for the requirement there? Can anyone help?

 

[snow88]

Joining everyone else who is waiting for this secondary...

if there are no essays, does the secondary just ask for confirmation of coursework?

 

[TuloRocks]

Well, for starters, the requirement is only a requirement if you attended grad school.

Thus, if you did not attend grad school, the requirement is not a requirement, and nothing should be entered under the grad school letter requirement.

Asks for familial relations with the school if you have any and also asks you to list the letters you assigned to the school in AMCAS. And of course your credit card number.

What if I'll start grad school in the upcoming school year?? I'm doing a one year program which should be over by June of '12?!?!?!

 

[Depumcrc]

Good luck to everyone applying. If you have any questions about NYMC feel free to shoot me a message

 

[235788]

come on NYMC : ). I'd only go here if it was my only acceptance but I still want to be complete

 

[Don15]

still no secondary here

 

[kh48625]

Just received the secondary this morning. One of the easiest secondaries around. No essays.

 

[chrissyxf]

this is specifically addressed in instructions. i already completed mine and therefore can't access the instructions but it said something like send a letter after the first semester is completed or something.

Edit: found instructions "
If you have just begun a graduate program in Summer/Fall 2011, one (1) letter of evaluation from faculty in your graduate department is required upon completion of your first semester. This requirement also applies if you are enrolled in non-degree granting graduate program."

NYMC is rolling them out over the course of the week. You should get it between now and Friday.

 

[KLycos]

What is everything that the secondary asks for in terms of writing?

 

[WhizoMD]

What is everything that the secondary asks for in terms of writing?

Connections (alumni/employees) if you have any
LOR Information
Payment Info (if using fee waiver or check, you have to print and mail in the conformation page)

 

[SteveJMarist]

Received and submitted- is anyone seeing their secondary marked as complete on the status site? I'm assuming it takes a couple of days for them to validate it.
